this is my adapted openrd configuration: #define CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_NAND 1 #define CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE 0x20000 /* 128K */ #define CONFIG_ENV_SIZE 0x20000 /* 128k */ #define CONFIG_ENV_ADDR 0x60000 #define CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET 0x60000 /* env starts here */ #define CONFIG_ENV_RANGE (6 * CONFIG_ENV_SIZE) #define CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND (CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET + CONFIG_ENV_RANGE) It is too long ago I made this modification, so I am not sure (but of course hope so) that CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND does not have to be explicitly specified. Concerning your hint about making CONFIG_ENV_SIZE smaller: there is a comment in the original openrd_base.h config file /* * max 4k env size is enough, but in case of nand * it has to be rounded to sector size */ and I simply adhered to it. It is not clear to me if this is really a requirement or just made for convenience (having overview over the flash usage layout). Up to now, I did not have any problems with this setup on something like 100+ boards.
